Extensive modelling was conducted to provide
estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions
emanating from a wide series of scenarios. This was
done to consider the impacts - GHG, economic, and
financial - from the application of various carbon prices
across various categories of emissions. Its purpose was
to inform government's policy choices and compare
impacts across different scenarios.

The goal of the government's analysis was to choose the
most effective policy mix to achieve the most emission
reductions at the least economic cost.
